Music recommendations for Gackt-sama

What music would you recommend for Gackt to try?


Even this question stumps me! I'm quite fond of Weiss Kreuz music, including Gluhen, so I would recommend music from that anime. It's easy to listen to, it can keep you active with some songs, and it gives you a sense of nostalgia. At least for me it does lol




Have a Happy New Year, everyone! I'm already on New Year's Eve! :D

First would be Keith Jarrett's jazz piano music. I think Gackt would appreciate his musical ability. Another one would be Keane and the last one I'm not sure if he already listens to it or not but Wang Lee Hom's last 3-4 albums.

I'd recommend him Muse because I recommend Muse to anyone who deserves to listen to good music.

and I agree, in some respects. Muse are a lot harder and maybe a bit more progressive than Gackt, but the classical piano/rock guitar combinations are common between them.

ohhh I see. I just didn't want to Youtube up the place and make a mess of the layout, or something. :P I guess I should just add a video then? (wanna see if this works..)



You might like this song too, it's mostly piano (with a backing bass and drum, of course). Epic song. :D

Actually, I really wish Gackt did some more songs a la Freesia. Piano with a backing band, or backing synth, or whatever. I melt whenever I hear that song.

LOL Rocky Horror Movie Show (I get replies sent to my email; just read that XD)

but how does it remind you of THAT? haha

Oh, and trust me, Muse are a GREAT band to get into! Fantastic guitar-lines, synth-lines, not to mention Matt's ridiculous falsetto range.. (compared to your average rock band, anyways).

moar youtube?


Perhaps a bit wacky, yes... but I love 'em.

you din't answer my question! It's just cracking me up, imagining the singer all dressed to the nines in a Frank N Furter outfit.. (and he probably would do it, too.)

crowd-surfing. ;) A friend of mine got a concussion from a crowd-surfer who kicked him in the head, lmao.

Yeah, I'd like Gackt to try some really proggy stuff. He could use a bit of experimentation ;)

omg... Mad Scientist... that's probably the best way to describe them. Most of their songs have to do with.. world domination, to some extent XD government conspiracies, etc etc..

It's his own fault, I think! He goes to too many hardcore-type concerts. :P I've had only bruises left from concerts, which is astounding considering how small and weak I am XD

Jesus wasn't too bad I thought, but a little too Green Day-ish for me..? Ghost, though.. I like Ghost. :)

[identity profile] juincoquine.livejournal.com 2009-01-02 09:59 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, yeah, the guitar parts were pretty Metallica-ish. (that's not even a word.) But I think the vocals were super pop-punk.. which makes me think of recent Green Day, or Good Charlotte or something. :P

the DVD for Muse, you mean? or any concert? Myeeh, I've survived the Nine Inch Nails pit twice, I think I can hold my own. ;)

You always come up with such great questions! xD And, though it's late, I hope you have a Happy New Year too! ^^

Let's see...music that I would recommend to Gackt? Enya. I recommend her all the time. Her music is just so soothing, it could put you to sleep. In the good way. And, her music works wonders for background noise when doing work or studying. The style is just so relaxing, nice and calming, which I think Gackt needs every once in a while, ne. ^.~

Was he? He probably was! I've seen too many photo shoots, they all blur together for me! xD And, of course, Gackt would already know about her awesome-ness! =P Well then, I suggest any other music that is like Enya, he needs all the relaxation that he could get! ^.~

Lol! xD I'm the same. I have SO many pics of him. ^^; Take your time with finding the pic though, no rush. ^^

[identity profile] lilyginnyblack.livejournal.com 2009-01-04 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
Really!? That's probably why I missed it! I've been so busy lately, I'm playing "catch up on Gackt news" right now! xD

[identity profile] dreamingallday.livejournal.com 2009-01-04 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
lol I wanted to suggest Sigur Rós too ^^

[identity profile] dreamingallday.livejournal.com 2009-01-04 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I would recommend him to try also some slovak or czech music like Jana Kirschner, Desmod, Krystof, Hapka & Horacek, Cechomor, ... [I wrote the names without diacritics, you can look them up on youtube too ^^]
Don't know if he would like it, I do XD But I would recommend it ^^

[identity profile] dreamingallday.livejournal.com 2009-01-04 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
lol XD I don't think you do - if you would, you woldn't know japanese music either XD
and me - I don't know a lot about other music too, I think. ^^; but sometimes, when I have time, I love to listen to a world music radio program about local music in countries all over the world [usually there is a lot of music from small musicians with their specific nice music, not the big stars ^^]
btw I just updated my journal with a concert from a czech musician Divokej Bill & Čechomor - I wondered how Gackt might react if I took him to such event ^^; XDDD I wonder if he would like it ^^

[identity profile] dianunex.livejournal.com 2009-01-04 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah !! Gackt must lisent Sigur Rós, they are sooo great. i really love they.^^
